Charles F. Goldfarb is the father of "markup languages" -- the
data technology of the World Wide Web. He is the inventor of SGML,
the Standard Generalized Markup Language on which the Web's HTML
and XML are based.

His ideas have been adopted by thousands of organizations whose
complex systems and products require massive amounts of
documentation. (A single model of aircraft, for example, requires 4
million pages that must be updated quarterly.)

In 1999 the Society for Technical Communication awarded an Honorary
Fellowship to Goldfarb for markup languages and to Tim Berners-Lee,
inventor of the Web, for making such innovative use of the technology.

Goldfarb edits Prentice-Hall's Definitive XML Series and his XML
Handbook(tm), now in its Fifth Edition, has over 100,000 copies in print
in six languages.  He has been profiled in Forbes, Red Herring, and
other publications.

Dr.  Goldfarb is an independent consultant and speaker.  From 2000 -
2005 he was a Director of Innodata Isogen (INOD:NASDAQ), and since 2006
he has been an advisor to ObjectBuilders (www.objectbuilders.com).
